International Leadership Conference: Managing Global Universities

November 2012
Date to be announced soon!
Ningbo, China

This year's event will mark the third anniversary of the International Leadership Conference, which will take place at The University of Nottingham Ningbo, China. The conference, which takes place annually, has previously welcomed delegates from the UK, Denmark, China, Colombia, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, the US and Belgium. The event is designed for senior leaders to discuss and share best practice on important topics around the internationalisation of higher education.

"Attending the first 'International Leadership Conference: Managing Global Universities' in 2010 was of considerable value in developing the internationalisation strategy for the University of Reading. The week was a valuable mix of high-level strategic discussion and knowledge-sharing to gain practical insights from university leaders with experience of building and running campuses overseas.

I would recommend the opportunity to attend to anyone involved in planning and developing their institution's worldwide reach." Professor Steven Mithen, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for International and External Engagement at the University of Reading

"...it was a pleasure to join such a stimulating event." Phil Baty, Deputy Editor, Times Higher Education.

"...it was one of the better conferences I have ever been to." Professor Kristiaan Versluys, Director of Education, Ghent University Belgium.

The intensive four day programme is designed for senior managers and leaders from higher education institutions from across the world. It will take place at The University of Nottingham’s campus in Ningbo, China, an extremely successful research-led UK university with an excellent reputation for global leadership and management.
